Hi Lawrence I tried this out and basically it works, but there is still a problem. I am comparing my stuff based on the W3C-nodes and those nodes are still named "base..." while the xml I want to compare them to never uses thos basetypes. Maybe I could change the comparemethod, but the instances I send the xml to seem to have problem with the use of basetypes and thats definitly out of my reach.
Is there any solution to this?
